The best counters against Muramura in Pokémon GO in the guide. We show you the best attackers and movesets. With these, you can defeat Muramura in raids.
What kind of Pokémon is Muramura? Muramura is an Ultra Beast from the 7th generation. It has the types Rock and Steel and cannot evolve.
We show you which Pokémon are the best counters against Muramura and which types it is particularly vulnerable to (type effectiveness).
Defeating Muramura in Raid with these counters
Mega-Lucario with Power Wave and Aura Sphere
Proto-Groudon with Mud Shot and Abyss Blade
Crypto-Groudon with Mud Shot and Abyss Blade
Lucario with Power Wave and Aura Sphere
Mega-Krookodile with Mud Shot and Earth Powers
Mega-Scizor with Counter and Close Combat
Terrakion with Double Kick and Sanctuary Blade
Crypto-Conkeldurr with Counter and Dynamic Punch
Crypto-Krookodile with Mud Shot and Earth Powers
Crypto-Stunfisk with Mud Shot and Fire Sand
Crypto-Machamp with Counter and Dynamic Punch
Keldeo with Low Kick and Sanctuary Blade
Mega-Blaziken with Counter and Focus Punch
Demeteros (Therian Form) with Mud Shot and Desert Hurricane
Crypto-Mamoswine with Mud Shot and Horsepower
Crypto-Hariyama with Power Wave and Dynamic Punch
Mega-Gallade with Low Kick and Close Combat
Groudon with Mud Shot and Abyss Blade
Crypto-Rhyperior with Mud Shot and Earthquake
Mega-Alakazam with Counter and Focus Punch
Weaknesses of Muramura: Due to the types Rock and Steel that Muramura possesses, there are three types you should use against the Pokémon. Attacks from the types Fighting and Ground are particularly effective as Muramura has double weakness against these types.
Against attacks from the type Water, Muramura at least has a single weakness. So if you don’t have enough attackers of the types Fighting and Ground, you can fall back on Water Pokémon if necessary. However, you should prioritize the other two types.
Is there a Shiny-Muramura? Yes, starting from April 9, 2025, you can also get Muramura in its Shiny variant.
How many trainers are needed? If you bring very good counter Pokémon for Muramura that are at a corresponding high level, you can complete the raid with just two trainers. However, this number of trainers still makes it a tough battle.
If your setup is not optimal or if you want to be sure, you should have more trainers with you. If you want to plan your raid teams in advance, our tips for organizing your raid teams could help you.

In Path of Exile 2, the frustration with the new season “Dawn of the Hunt” is high. Players do not understand exactly in which direction the ARPG is developing and instead point to Last Epoch, which does one thing much better.
What do players demand? After the rocky start of the first season of Path of Exile 2, players no longer understand in which direction the developers want to go with the ARPG. On Reddit, players’ frustration is unleashed, wanting the developers to explain to them where the journey is headed.
The Reddit user Pluristan summarizes the mood and demands: “GGG [developers of PoE2], show us how you play PoE 2 […] so we finally know what you really want and what to expect from us.”
More specifically, players demand a developer livestream in which they show the fans how to play the ARPG properly and where the gameplay vision behind it is explained. A competitor of Path of Exile 2 is taking a better approach here.
Here you can watch the trailer for the new season of Path of Exile 2:

The Look at the Competition
What is the competition doing? The starting point of the new season “Dawn of the Hunt” of Path of Exile 2 has caused a lot of trouble for ARPG fans in the past. The release date of the new season of Path of Exile 2 almost collided with that of Last Epoch, which was problematic for players wanting to switch between the two games. They would have had to choose between the two ARPGs.
In the end, the developers of Last Epoch admitted defeat and postponed their release. After the rocky start of “Dawn of the Hunt,” players’ eyes are now drifting back to Last Epoch. While players finally want clarity from Path of Exile 2, developer Mike Weicker regularly streams on Twitch on Fridays.
There, he not only plays his ARPG, but also answers fans’ questions in the chat and explains the mechanics, visions, and backgrounds of Last Epoch. This is also appreciated by genre fans, who want the developers of Path of Exile 2 to take a page out of this book.

How many episodes does Fallout Season 2 have?
It is still unclear how many episodes Season 2 of Fallout will have. Season 1 consists of 8 episodes, each lasting between about 45 and 75 minutes.

What is the age rating for Fallout Season 2?
The Fallout series is rated for ages 16 and up and is therefore aimed at adults and teenagers. It is not suitable for children. This will probably remain the same with Season 2.
Fallout Season 2: Cast – Which actors are involved?
It has been confirmed that the main trio – The Ghoul, Lucy, and Maximus – will definitely also be in Season 2. Among others, the following actors are expected to be involved:
Ella Purnell as Lucy MacLean
Walton Goggins as the Ghoul
Aaron Mortan as Maximus
Kyle MacLachlan as Hank MacLean
Moisés Arias as Norm MacLean
Sarita Choudhury as Moldaver
Frances Turner as Barb
Leslie Uggams as Betty
Macaulay Culkin in an unknown role
There is a possibility that Aaron Paul (known as Jesse Pinkman from Breaking Bad) will make his debut in Fallout Season 2. The Fallout director and producer Jonathan Nolan has suggested that Paul is very interested in a leading role according to GamesRadar. Whether he actually becomes part of the cast remains to be seen.
Fallout Season 2: Plot – What is it about?
Season 2 of Fallout will pick up where Season 1 left off. It sends the Vault resident Lucy, the Ghoul, and Knight Maximus among others to New Vegas, where they will search for more Vault-Tec members. After Lucy learns what her father and the ruthless Vault-Tec have done, she tries to get to the bottom of the matter.
In Warzone, the assault rifle “Kilo 141” was introduced with Season 3 and is a strong choice for the battle royale mode. We will show you strong setups with attachments.
On April 2, 2025, Season 3 of CoD: Black Ops 3 started and brought a new Battle Pass and new weapons to the game. The day after, Verdansk returned to Warzone – the most popular map of the battle royale, where it all began in 2020.
What kind of weapon is this? One of the weapons that has proven to be a strong choice immediately after the launch is the Kilo 141. The assault rifle is particularly suitable for medium distances and can be combined with an SMG. We will show you two setups that will help you eliminate your opponents in Verdansk.
Start video

Warzone: Meta Loadout for the Kilo 141
The Kilo 141 is a fully automatic assault rifle with good handling and a stable rate of fire. Back then, the Kilo 141 was a popular choice in Verdansk and according to wzstats.gg, it is still one of the best weapons for the battle royale mode.
According to content creator and Warzone expert Stylerz, the assault rifle can also be played well without a scope to utilize an additional attachment slot (via YouTube). However, if you still want to use a scope, he recommends the “3x Scope Willis,” which you can take instead of a grip.
These attachments are needed in Warzone:
Muzzle: Suppressor (Monolithic)
Barrel: Barrel with Progressive Twist
Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
Magazine: Magazine Extension II
Grip: Quickdraw Grip
Attachments in English
Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
Barrel: Gain-Twist Barrel
Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
Magazine: Extended Mag II
Rear Grip: Quickdraw Grip
What makes the setup strong? With the attachments, you shoot almost “on the spot,” according to Stylerz, meaning you have a well-controlled recoil. This does not change with the “3x Scope Willis.” The suppressor increases range and bullet speed – the latter is further enhanced by the barrel. The Vertical Foregrip increases recoil control while the grip allows you to aim faster.
Warzone: Loadout for the Kilo 141 with 8 Attachments
If you prefer to play with 8 attachments and even less recoil, the following attachments are recommended by wzstats.gg. Please note that for this build, you need to equip the “Gunfighter” wildcard to be able to equip 8 instead of only 5 attachments. You will unlock the wildcard at player level 33.
Optic: Volzhskiy Reflex (unlocked through the AK-74)
Muzzle: Compensator
Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
Magazine: Extended Mag II
Rear Grip: Commando Grip
Stock: Heavy Stock
Fire Mods: Recoil Springs
Attachments in English
Optic: Volzhskiy Reflex
Muzzle: Compensator
Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
Magazine: Extended Mag II
Rear Grip: Commando Grip

Fire Mods: Recoil Springs
With the wildcard, you can only equip a pistol or a rocket launcher as a secondary weapon. So grab another weapon and equip it instead as soon as you land in Verdansk – or buy a second loadout drop with another weapon and combine both.
How do I unlock the weapon? You will receive the Kilo 141 when you log into the battle royale mode in Call of Duty. If you want to play Warzone anyway, you will automatically receive the weapon once you start it in the overview.
If you are still looking for a strong weapon that you can carry alongside or instead of the Kilo 141, we have looked at which weapons are widely played in Call of Duty: Warzone.

In Warzone, the assault rifle “CR 56-AMAX” was introduced in Season 3 and has been dominating the meta lists of builds for the battle royale mode ever since. We present two strong setups with attachments.
On April 2, 2025, Season 3 in CoD: Black Ops 3 started, bringing a fresh battle pass and new weapons to the game. A day later, Verdansk returned to Warzone – the most popular map of the battle royale, with which everything started in 2020.
What kind of weapon is it? One of the weapons that immediately established itself as meta after its launch is the CR 56-AMAX. This assault rifle is particularly suitable for medium and long distances and can be well combined with another assault rifle or a submachine gun. We show you two setups with which you can take down your opponents in Verdansk.

The CR 56-AMAX is a fully automatic assault rifle with impressive penetration power and a fast fire rate. With the attachments we show you below, you will have hardly any recoil according to content creator and Warzone expert Stylerz, and you can mow down opponents even at high range (via YouTube).
These attachments are needed in Warzone:
Optic: 3x Scope Willis
Muzzle: Compensator
Barrel: Barrel with Progressive Twist
Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
Magazine: Extended Mag II
To improve handling, you can also choose the Extended Mag I instead of the largest magazine. An alternative to the compensator is the Monolith Suppressor, which additionally increases your range.
Attachments in English
Optic: Willis 3x
Muzzle: Compensator
Barrel: Gain-Twist Barrel
Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
Magazine: Extended Mag II
What makes the setup strong? The CR 56-AMAX is especially suitable for longer distances with the attachments and possesses low recoil that you can control well. For close-range fights, it is advisable to carry the AK-74. To equip two primary weapons, you must use the wildcard “Overkill”.
Warzone: Loadout for the CR 56-AMAX with 8 Attachments
If you prefer to play with 8 attachments and want even less recoil, the following attachments are recommended, which wzstats.gg suggests. Note that for this build, you need to equip the wildcard “Gunfighter” to be able to equip 8 instead of just 5 attachments. You will receive the wildcard at player level 33.
Optic: Volzhskiy Reflex (unlock via the AK-74)

How do I unlock the weapon? You will receive the CR 56-AMAX on page 6 of the battle pass. You do not have to buy it; you can pick up the field for free as soon as you have unlocked it. To unlock 6 pages, you need to gather some XP, so it is advisable to activate XP tokens and play a few rounds in multiplayer, zombie mode, or on Verdansk.

In Call of Duty: Warzone Verdansk is back and on the vast map, the HDR is a strong and popular choice. That’s why we show you the best loadout for the sniper.
What kind of weapon is this? The HDR is a sniper rifle that was introduced with the start of Season 3 in Black Ops 6 and Warzone. It is particularly suited for long distances and inflicts great damage with every hit.
In Warzone, you can even take down an opponent from hundreds of meters away with a single headshot or destroy their precious armor plates with body shots using the HDR.

The best loadout for the HDR
What is this loadout? The HDR is designed to give you an advantage in long-range battles. So we play:
Muzzle: Silencer (Monolith)
Barrel: Progressive Twist Barrel
Grip: Command Grip
Magazine: Magazine Expansion 1
Fire Modification: 180 mm Overpressure Ammunition
Why these attachments? We use the Progressive Twist Barrel on the HDR because it increases bullet speed, making it easier to hit moving targets at a distance. The same goes for the Monolith Silencer, which also increases your bullet speed and effective range compared to the regular silencer.
Additionally, we choose the Command Grip instead of the Quickdraw Grip so that we can have better scope visibility speed without sacrificing access resistance.
How do you unlock the HDR? You can easily unlock the HDR on page 3 of the Battle Pass while Season 3 of Warzone is running. Simply play public matches diligently and gather XP to progress in the Battle Pass.
If you’re still looking for a weapon to carry alongside the HDR, we recommend assault rifles that have a strong time-to-kill at short to medium ranges. You can find out which assault rifles are particularly played right now here: CoD Warzone: Meta – The best weapons with loadouts at a glance

Game of Thrones was the role that introduced many actors to a large audience. It was not only young actors, but also more experienced ones, who became well-known through the series. One of the toughest guys from Game of Thrones had previously starred in a strong comedy, yet hardly any resemblance can be recognized.
Which actor is it about? One of the toughest characters in Game of Thrones is Sandor Clegane, played by Rory McCann. The character is initially a ruthless warrior who serves the Lannisters and primarily looks after the protection of Joffrey Baratheon. Later, he becomes a bit softer after spending much time with Arya Stark and fighting for survival.
Rory McCann’s first film Ratcatcher was released in 1999 and before Game of Thrones, he had already played many roles. Four years before the launch of Game of Thrones, he appeared in the comedy Hot Fuzz, but from the dog in Game of Thrones, one can hardly recognize anything:
What kind of movie is Hot Fuzz?Hot Fuzz – Two Cocky Professionals by Edgar Wright was released in 2007 and is part of the so-called Cornetto Trilogy of three comedies starring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.
In Hot Fuzz, Simon Pegg plays the police officer Nicholas Angel. However, he is too good, and his superiors are fed up with him, so they transfer him to Gloucestershire. It is a village with the lowest crime rate in England. As luck would have it, Nicholas Angel uncovers a major village conspiracy.
The film is a classic Edgar Wright comedy. Fast cuts combined with British humor and slapstick. Especially the chemistry between Simon Pegg and Nick Frost is a highlight of the film. You can find a trailer for the film here:

What is the character of Rory McCann like? In Hot Fuzz, Nicholas Angel meets Michael Armstrong, played by Rory McCann. He seems to be dumber than an average person, which is especially evident from his vocabulary. He can only speak two words: Yarp for yes and Narp for no.
In the village, he works in a supermarket and stocks the shelves for his boss Simon Skinner. Later, it is revealed that Michael is also a henchman in other areas. He uses his muscle power to take care of the neighborhood watch’s opponents.
In the film, he fights against Nicholas Angel multiple times and uses his muscle power to throw him around. However, Angel defeats him every time using tricks.
While muscle power is a recurring element of Sandor and Michael, Rory McCann plays two completely different characters in both roles. After all, he managed to escape from his bosses in Game of Thrones. In Game of Thrones, he is one of the best swordsmen: The 10 best swordsmen from Game of Thrones in the power ranking

The 5 players from T1 became world champions in League of Legends in 2024 and can choose for which champ they will receive their skins. It has now been leaked for which characters in LoL Faker, Gumayusi, Zeus, Keria, and Oner have decided. The skins for T1 are expected to come in August 2025. Anyone who wants to get them all will have to pay about 100 €.
Which world champion skins did T1 choose?? According to a tweet from League of Legends Leak and other sources, the players chose (via x):
Top Zeus – Gnar
Jungle Oner – VI
Mid Faker – Prestige Yone (Faker was MVP and thus receives a special skin)
ADC Gumayusi – Varus
Support Keria – Pyke
Faker has been so successful for so long that he has a lot of his own skins in LoL:

How do the skins work? Anyone who becomes a world champion in LoL can request a skin for a champ of their choice from Riot Games. However, the player must have played the champ during the tournament. Whoever is MVP in the finals receives a special prestige skin.
When will the skins come? The skins are expected in August 2025. That’s when the skins came out last year as well.
Anyone who wants all the skins will have to pay a lot
What do the skins cost? Here too we are guided by experience:
The complete skin bundle with the chromas is expected to cost 13,220 RP. That’s about 100 euros.
A single skin bundle with choma and player icon will cost 2,530 RP – approximately 22 €.
A pure skin 1,350 RP – approximately 11 €.
Three players from T1 got the skins they hinted at after winning the world championship, that they are considering the champs. Oner, Gumayusi, and Keria each mentioned two possible champs and chose one of those.
Top laner Zeus, who has since left T1, originally wanted to pick Gragas, Camille, or Ornn, but has now decided on Gnar.
However, Faker did not make any statement about his preference in November 2024. He wanted fans to decide.
Despite spectacular plays with Galio, Faker chooses the wrong champ
What is the disappointment? Many had hoped that Faker would choose the hero Galio: Because Faker has a special history with him, many years ago he played so outstandingly with Galio that opponents Xiahou allegedly suffered a Galio trauma that was later exploited by the German top laner BrokenBlade.
With this champ, Faker made the decisive plays in the finals of the Worlds 2024, now legendary:

Schedule 1 is the new hit on Steam, where players can build their drug empire like Walter White from Breaking Bad and rake in a lot of cash. We provide you with all the important information regarding the release, possible updates, and the roadmap fitting to the game.
What is Schedule 1? In Schedule 1, you can create your own character and then embark on your journey as an aspiring drug dealer. The goal is to build a drug empire, expand the production process, delegate employees, and make a lot of money.
Although Schedule 1 is not known for its stunning graphics, the game managed to gain popularity rapidly at the start of its Early Access and enjoys a large player base (via SteamDB). Besides solo play, you can also wreak havoc in the city in co-op with your friends and rise against the law. Currently, the game is in Early Access in a kind of beta.

All about platforms, release, updates, and roadmap
When is the full release? This cannot be precisely determined yet. According to the official Steam page of the game (via store.steampowered.com), the lead and only developer of Schedule 1 states that his game will remain in Early Access for up to 2 years.
Which platforms are supported? Schedule 1 is currently only available on Steam. A console release for Xbox and PS5 or Nintendo Switch seems rather unlikely at the moment. However, the idea has not been ruled out by the developer yet.
How much does the game cost? Schedule 1 currently costs €19.50 on Steam. However, the price is expected to increase by 25–50% once the game celebrates its full release.
Are there regular updates? Yes, there are supposed to be. Just recently, a new update was released on April 7th that aims to fix some issues and bring many new features (via store.steampowered.com). Further updates are expected in the future, but note that the developer TVGS is a single person. The extent of support and updating the game may therefore take longer.
Is there a roadmap? Not directly, there is rather a Trello – a board where the developer of Schedule 1 collects all major and minor ideas that he then gradually implements into the game. This includes new types of drugs and fights with the cartel as well as small things like new weather conditions.

In the Marvel universe, the Fantastic Four are one of the most important superhero teams in comics, who will soon have a new movie. Their strong focus on a family dynamic sets them apart significantly from the Avengers. In 2018, DC attempted something similar.
Which DC group is it? In 1961, Marvel launched a new superhero team with The Fantastic Four No. 1, created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Over time, the four heroes evolved into key figures in the Marvel universe, playing essential roles in many events.
In 2018, DC tried something similar. The character Mr. Terrific, whom you can see in the first trailer for the upcoming Superman film (via YouTube), formed his own team of four characters. The Terrifics even face a villain who resembles the main adversary of the Fantastic Four.

A genius and a rubber man unwillingly form a group
Who are the Terrifics? Michael Holt is known as the hero Mr. Terrific. Essentially, he does not have traditional superpowers, but he is a great genius proficient in many different fields, such as chemistry, medicine, and robotics. He also keeps his body fit and is trained in martial arts.
Through his knowledge, he developed technology that helps him in combat and other areas. His T-Mask renders him invisible to all forms of electronics and protects him from chemicals. His T-Spheres are flying orbs that can be used as cameras, decoys, and even as shields or weapons (DC Database).
After the major event Dark Nights: Metal and the battle against a nasty version of the Joker, Mr. Terrific discovers in The Terrifics No. 1 from 2018 that a company is trying to open a new portal to the Dark Multiverse. To prevent this, he seeks help from Plastic Man. He is more than just a rubber man, as he can change his molecular structure, making him suitable for the portal.
Cover of Volume 1 of The Terrifics No.1 (Source: dc.com)
In the portal, they encounter Metamorpho, who becomes insane due to the energy of the Dark Multiverse and attacks Mr. Terrific and Plastic Man. During the battle, the three are pulled through the portal and find a monstrous sleeping entity that resembles Galactus, one of the most powerful beings from the Marvel universe.
They crash onto it and find Phantom Girl. She is an alien who has been trapped in this multiverse for years. They also find a device that Mr. Terrific wants to investigate. An explosion occurs, and the entity awakens. A portal opens, and the four escape before the monster could reach them.
As they try to separate, they realize it doesn’t work. If they get too far apart, they explode. Now they must work together to solve the problem. The Terrifics are formed.
Mr. Terrific as the head of the group.
Plastic Man possesses similar abilities to Mr. Fantastic, but because of his constant jokes, he is more comparable to Johnny Storm or Deadpool.
Metamorpho most closely resembles The Thing, especially due to his non-human form. He can transform his body into any element (via DC Database).
Phantom Girl is most similar to Invisible Woman. This modern version of the character comes from the planet Bgztl. She can pass through walls and fly, but she cannot physically manifest. After escaping from the Dark Multiverse, her touches can cause explosions (via DC Database).
Due to their fate, caused by an unwanted accident, the abilities, and team structure, the Terrifics strongly resemble the Fantastic Four. Especially the large monster in the Dark Multiverse is obviously inspired by Galactus. Throughout comic history, both Marvel and DC have inspired each other.
In the new Superman film, Mr. Terrific and Metamorpho will make their first screen appearance alongside other DC characters. Further films and series from DC are planned for the future, making it quite possible that we might see the Terrifics in a live-action format soon.

The shooter “The First Descendant” (Steam, PS4, PS5, Xbox) by Nexon is known for its revealing skins for heroines. With these outfits, publisher Nexon is believed to have made a lot of money. However, now they are introducing massive buffs for male heroes, who have apparently been too weak for a long time. The game director believes that new heroines like Serena or Ines have been introduced to the game too strongly.
This is what The First Descendant is known for: The loot shooter The First Descendant was released in July 2024 and was surprisingly successful on Steam.
However, it seems that the focus on female heroes led to a loss in balancing, which they now want to address.
She is considered one of the new heroines that came into the game too strongly:
Start video
The First Descendant: Gameplay trailer for Serena, the new winged descendant
The First Descendant strengthens the abilities of male heroes
These are the changes in the patch: In a hotfix on April 3, numerous balancing adjustments are being made. According to the site MassivelyOP, this mainly affects male characters who have performed worse than their female counterparts.
As a result, there will now be massive buffs. The damage of some abilities will increase between 100 and 300%.
As MassivelyOp says, it may seem drastic, but the female top-tier characters are so far ahead that even with powerful buffs, their male counterparts will hardly reach the top of the meta.
Director regrets that new heroines came into the game too strong
This is what the developers say: According to the head of development, Minseok Joo, it has been widely discussed in the community that new heroines like Ines and Serena have made some content easier than intended by the developers. Therefore, they must now address the issue (via steam).
Characters like Freyna, Serena, and Ines are too strong, and they have released new characters that are “overpowered”. They do not know why this has happened and want to prevent it in the future.
We are also aware that we released the new descendants in too powerful a state. While the development team hopes that the new descendants will be in the spotlight, we do not want them to be so overpowered that the content structure collapses. We are internally looking for the reasons for this recurring problem and are working to improve our development process so that we can provide more stable and balanced content in the future.
However, the game director does not address the notion that heroines are favored in any way.
This is behind it: Two accusations come together, which are often found in online games:
Companies intentionally make new characters too strong, forcing players to buy them
Developers favor attractive female characters, designing more skins for them because they sell better
Both accusations are well-known, especially in games from Asia, and have been discussed many times. A typical case of “too much favoritism for women” has been leveled against the MMORPG Tera: TERA: Enough with the women classes – I feel discriminated

Call of Duty: Warzone celebrates the return of Verdansk with an event where you can get a free skin – if you are not plagued by bad luck.
What kind of free skin is this? In Call of Duty: Warzone, since the start of Season 3, there has been an event celebrating the return of Verdansk. You need to open blue safes in random locations in each zone of the map to receive rewards.
These safes can contain various rewards, and with a bit of luck, they may also include the free skin “Pathfinder” for the operator Caine.
Start video

Players are unlucky, fearing missing the skin
What is behind the players’ bad luck: Part of the community fears they might miss the skin, as it can only be obtained during the event (ends on April 15), and the drop chances for the skin are quite low.
There are players who have already opened a multitude of safes and still have not received the skin. One player writes on Reddit: “[I have been] at it for 17 hours and have searched over 100 safes, with no luck.”
Other players are also convinced that the skin is very rare:
One player comments: “I’m starting to wonder if it’s even possible to get [the skin].”
Another believes: “Officially the hardest and rarest skin to obtain in COD history. Nukes were easier to get than this bullshit.”
A player wishes it were easier to get the skin: “I go into a round of Plunder, open an average of 5-6 safes per game, leave the match after getting nothing, and repeat the whole thing. Please CoD, make it easier.”
Many players share a similar fate: Those who have bad luck when opening safes and simply cannot get the skin, even though they would like to have it, are dissatisfied. Some players prefer a challenge that requires skill rather than luck.
Other players, however, appreciate the limited availability of the skin because it allows them to have a rare skin that others do not own.
Are there tips for opening the safes? Yes and no. The most important tip is probably: Play normally and don’t focus your matches on opening safes. It will only rob you of enjoyment.
If you want to focus on opening safes, you can weigh:
In Plunder, you have more opportunities to reach the safes due to respawns. However, other players have the same thought in mind, which makes the safes contested.
In Battle Royale, you obviously need to avoid being eliminated. For many players, the safes seem rather secondary there and are less contested. It’s more about victory there.
Additionally, it should help to go on a safe hunt as a team since you likely get the contents of a safe even if your teammate opens it. Moreover, a map showing the locations of the safes can help with locating them: CoD Warzone: Find safes on Verdansk and secure event rewards

The new season “Dawn of the Hunt” of Path of Exile 2 has caused a lot of frustration among players. Even the big YouTuber Penguinz0 is disappointed and rants for minutes about the ARPG in a new video. Now the developers are also speaking out.
Who is it about? YouTuber Penguinz0 is one of the biggest gaming YouTubers ever. Currently, 16.7 million fans follow him on the platform. His videos cover various topics, mostly trending ones, that are currently relevant. The content creator has also played Path of Exile 2 for about 250 hours.
However, in a new video, the creator explains how frustrated he is with the new season “Dawn of the Hunt” and strongly criticizes Path of Exile 2 in the process.
Here you can see the trailer for the new season of Path of Exile 2:

Strong criticism of the new season
What does the YouTuber criticize? YouTuber Penguinz0 criticizes the new season in his video for minutes. An important point is the tedious, frustrating leveling. It is “not hard, just incredibly tedious.” Even normal enemies take so much time that the flow of the game is disrupted.
“It’s so boring, I can’t even say it’s challenging. It just feels bad,” says Penguinz0 about the leveling in the game. The bosses are no better: “You have to get up during the fight, or you will die of thrombosis. It takes that long,” he jokes about the tediousness of the boss fights.
According to him, the massive nerfs are to blame, which have made character builds ineffective. Despite his glass-cannon build focused on minions, his character is barely equipped even against simple enemies: “It feels like my minions are healing the enemies.”
The YouTuber also comments on the developers. Their intention was to make Path of Exile 2 “slower and more meaningful,” as Penguinz0 explains. According to him, they have failed in this endeavor: “This is not slow and meaningful. It’s slow, tedious, and meaningless – except when it comes to suffering.”
What is his conclusion? For Penguinz0, “Dawn of the Hunt” has become a major disappointment, clouding his previous enthusiasm for the ARPG. The update is a step back, not forward, and the only thing he is still looking forward to is the endgame and the changes there: “I’m really looking forward to the endgame – that’s where the changes are supposed to shine. But so far, leveling has been an absolute disaster.”
Here you can see the video of his conclusion:

How do the developers respond to the criticism? The YouTuber’s criticism is shared by large parts of the community. Already on the release weekend of the season, the ratings of the game on Steam dropped and there were many complaints on Reddit. Even the now 10 patches that the developers have provided to improve the situation have not convinced the players.
The developers are now speaking out in a long statement and explaining the changes they have made or will follow since the release of “Dawn of the Hunt” (via PathofExile.com).
The slow game pace is to be improved by a nerf of monsters, as monsters lost between 25% and 60% of their hit points.
The new Huntress class receives a new ability that allows her to gain Frenzy Charges even without parrying, so the class no longer has to be played in melee combat. The spear throws have also been accelerated.
The too weak minions that had also caught Penguinz0’s attention have been buffed and now have more damage and health at the start of the game, but they remain nerfed in the endgame.
In the endgame, many areas felt too big and empty since the new season. The developers have added more checkpoints and are investigating the problem. There are also further improvements in the areas of technology and quality of life.
The developers address some of the YouTuber’s criticisms, but things like the tedious boss fights and the sluggish campaign, which will only benefit from the weakening of standard enemies, remain unaddressed. Even Elon Musk found the new season too difficult. He died in the tutorial: Supergamer Elon Musk tries to play Path of Exile 2 by himself for once, dies in the tutorial.

The German gaming studio “Studio Fizbin” was founded in 2011 and most recently operated in Berlin. The studio has repeatedly won awards, but now Studio Fizbin is facing closure, having spent 3 years working on a new game, and “Reignbreaker” has received 84% positive reviews on Steam. In a podcast, studio head Alexander Pieper discusses the difficulties.
What is the situation around Reignbreaker? On March 18, 2025, “Reignbreaker” was released on Steam. The game costs only €10. For that, you could buy 2 beers, as studio head Alexander Pieper somewhat grumpily notes in a podcast (via okcool). But the pricing is determined by the publisher.
Reignbreaker has received 84% positive reviews on Steam. The reviews praise that this rogue-like has the desired “just one more run” effect that fans of this type of game love. Especially the character design is highlighted.
However, the game is not successful: it reached a maximum of 110 players on Steam. The studio head hopes that maybe a Twitch streamer will discover it, but that would be nothing short of a miracle. Otherwise, the studio faces closure. They have already come to terms with that. The focus is now on ensuring that employees are well transitioned.

German studio needs new money for every new game
This frustrates the studio head: In a podcast, Pieper talks about the problems the studio has faced, which have now led publisher Thunderful to decide not to invest further in the studio, which amounts to closure if Reignbreaker does not unexpectedly become a huge hit on Steam.
A studio like Fizbin lives from one game to the next: fresh money must be found for every new game developed.
Studio head says: Everything conspired against the studio
This is what the studio head says about the end of the studio: Pieper says about the end of the studio that in the last months, everything seemed to conspire against them. Everything that could go wrong did go wrong.
They could only pitch a single new project because they were still working on Reignbreaker. This new project was almost finished, but then the partner withdrew. Pieper says the high-profile client opted for something cheaper for cost reasons.
Because suddenly, venture capital fled from gaming. For all gaming studios, it became almost impossible to secure financing with fresh money:
Venture capital is moving away, moving out of video games.
The industry and the entire flow of money are a huge problem. There is no longer any risk appetite. One can see on live television how the whole bubble is bursting.
With the collapse of the traffic light government, funding also disappeared
What does Christian Lindner have to do with it? The collapse of the traffic light coalition was another extreme setback for Studio Fizbin, as Pieper explains:
What was also a death blow for us was the damn government, which fell apart thanks to Lindner.
Pieper says that due to the collapse of the traffic light coalition, the games funding collapsed because no new budget was passed. This federal funding is crucial as an argument for German studios to attract investors.
As a studio in Germany, you need this advantage to compete with Canada or the USA, where investors get tax credits that gift them taxes, allowing games to be developed much more cheaply in North America than in Germany. Studio Fizbin has to compare itself with such countries:
Since even that went wrong, everything went wrong that could go wrong.
Reignbreaker faces backlash on Steam, perceived as woke
What was the final end? The news that the studio would not be getting any new money from the publisher was then picked up by opponents of the project. Suddenly, it was said: Don’t buy the game, it’s already dead. The money only goes to the publisher anyway.
Pieper says they ended up on the radar of some “gamers” who consistently attack woke games. They then spread the narrative that the studio was dead and that any purchased game would only benefit the publisher, even though this narrative was not true. For if Reignbreaker had become a hit, the studio could have continued. Every sale helps keep the lights on at Fizbin longer.
The first thing that happened was that some gamers – and I intentionally say gamers and not players, because in my mind, gamers are often just jerks who have some problem when you release a game that doesn’t feature some strong male dude or – as an alternative – the main character can be female and have big breasts.
If that is not the case, then it is a nasty, woke game. People used the publisher’s announcement to share in Steam forums that Reignbreaker was already dead at release and should not be bought.
Among the topics on Steam with the most comments regarding Reignbreaker are: “Major turn off” – A game developer brings their political views into the game. They should leave that out. “Maximum ugly character” – Can’t boys just be boys and girls just be girls? “Butch lesbian Hades” – There is no further content in the post.
For Studio Fizbin, this was catastrophic. They had worked with passion for 3 years on the game, then the publisher pulled the plug on them, and then there was a warning about the game. This destroyed their work on the game.
The Twitch streamer Maximilian “Trymacs” Stemmler repeatedly opens Pokémon boosters in his streams and collects the cards. He would like to have them graded by a US company to determine their rarity. However, this would only be possible if he is a US citizen.
Now he wanted to have his pulled Pokémon cards graded, but that can’t be done from Germany.
We present you Trymacs’ career in our video:

“If I catch him”
What kind of company is this? It is the US company Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA). They are located in the USA and grade trading cards or other rare collectibles. Many know them because they also grade Pokémon cards, and based on this grading, the resale value of a card can be determined.
The higher the value of the card it was graded with, the higher the resale price can be.
Due to the new tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump on imports into the USA, PSA is now forced to no longer grade items that must be imported into the country. They announced this on April 3, 2025 on their website.
People living outside the USA can no longer have their items graded. Of course, there are other companies that offer such grading, but PSA is the most well-known.
Therefore, Trymacs would need to live in the USA for PSA to give his Pokémon cards what is called “grading.”
How does Trymacs react? Trymacs is visibly shocked by this decision from PSA in a stream clip on YouTube. His original plan was to send his best cards to the company and have them graded by them.
He is frustrated and indirectly comments on Donald Trump: “My goodness, wow. If I catch him!” All of this with a sarcastic undertone.
Although Trymacs states that there are plenty of things to criticize about the company and its grading, they are still the “top dog,” and everyone, when talking about grading, refers to PSA’s evaluations.
The new simulation game Schedule I is currently a huge success on Steam. However, the publishers of a similar game claim their copyright has been violated and want to take action against the Steam hit. This has consequences, primarily for the studio that has complained.
What game is it about? Schedule I is the new hot hit on Steam. The criminal simulation currently exceeds 450,000 simultaneous players in Early Access and makes Twitch sound like an episode of Breaking Bad.
Only one person seems to be unhappy about the success: The Polish publisher Movie Games S.A. has noticed a certain similarity to their game series Drug Dealer Simulator and accuses the creator of Schedule I of having borrowed from them. This, however, backfires spectacularly.
Start video
Schedule I shows in the trailer what the simulation of criminal life looks like
Fans turn against the original game on Steam
What is the accusation? According to a report from the Polish Press Agency PAP, the studio reportedly started an analysis comparing the game to their title as early as March 24, 2025, around the release of Schedule 1.
This analysis is said to have identified several violations of intellectual property: Changes in the storyline, game mechanics, and user interface allegedly violated copyright. Movie Games S.A. now intends to explore possible legal action under Australian law, since the solo developer of Schedule I is based in Australia.
TVGS, the studio behind the Steam hit, has not yet publicly commented on the allegations. We have requested a statement from the developers and will update this section as soon as we receive one.
How is this being discussed? According to initial reactions, the action by Movie Games S.A. seems to have backfired considerably. Their own game, which until then had been mostly positively received on Steam, is now being torn apart by angry fans.
On April 6, 2025, nearly 300 new reviews were added, of which 265 were negative. Experience shows that Steam tends to intervene against such review bombings; however, currently, Drug Simulator 2 has a “mostly negative” score (as of April 7, 2025).
For fans of Schedule I, it seems clear: They are probably just angry because their game isn’t as big a hit. Aside from the premise of selling drugs, the games do not resemble each other.
As our colleagues from GRY Online report, Movie Games S.A. could benefit elsewhere, as their stock price on the Polish stock exchange has soared, apparently in anticipation of a hefty payday. After all, Schedule I is estimated to have already sold 3 million units.
Before the release of his hit, the developer of Schedule I asked the community for advice. He feared that the title of his game would not represent the content well. Ironically, users specifically advised him against titles like “Drug Dealer Simulator” – those would directly lead to yawning.

Marathon is set to be the new game from the creators of Destiny 2. Now Bungie has released a teaser that shows some snippets from the game, and MeinMMO author Christos thinks it looks very promising.
What kind of game is Marathon?Marathon is expected to be an extraction shooter set in the universe of the namesake franchise. The game has a futuristic appearance with a dystopian touch and a world where everyone fights for survival. It is said to have several classes, as well as the ability to modify weapons to perfect one’s playstyle – but not much more is known about the game yet.
If you missed the trailer, you can catch up on it here:

Marathon provides a brief glimpse into the world of extraction shooters
Trailer demonstrates how well Bungie can develop games
As a Destiny player for 10 years, I’ve seen much and have often been disappointed, but I have a good feeling about Marathon – even if the genre is niche.
The trailer shows me that Bungie hasn’t lost its talent for capturing moods. The world appears colorful, mysterious, futuristic, and with a touch of darkness. The interplay of the scenes with the accompanying soundtrack gave me goosebumps.
I notice: Bungie has let its creativity run wild, something that has been lacking in Destiny 2 recently. As a longtime fan, I now know where this creativity has gone – and that convinces me.
The anticipation for the gameplay reveal is rising
The most important thing in the trailer is the ending, not because it ends there, but because Bungie announced the date for a gameplay reveal of Marathon. This is to take place on April 12, 2025, at 7:00 PM German time.
This is quite unusual, as most reveals from Bungie take place during the week on a Thursday. The Saturday might be strategically chosen to reach even more people, as many do not work on weekends.
So far, we haven’t seen much, particularly important aspects like performance and mechanics of the game, but just the teaser has convinced me to tune in on Saturday. If Bungie can impress on the weekend, Marathon might have a chance to make it into my library, even if that chance is slim.
Marathon continues to be hotly debated among Destiny fans
Why is Marathon being discussed so controversially? Bungie is currently not very popular among many fans and this has a lot to do with Destiny 2. The studio proved that they can build a really strong loot shooter, and this was evident in its success.
In recent years, however, the loot shooter has suffered from bugs and a lack of content. A recurring criticism from players is the recycling of old content. These critical voices spill over to Marathon and are regularly found among new information about the game. However, the harshest criticism Bungie has faced is mainly due to the waves of layoffs within the studio.

In the latest update of Monster Hunter Wilds, several new features have been added to the game. With the Leviathan Mizutsune, another monster has also been introduced. And it holds a secret that veterans may find familiar and that could influence future hunts.
What secret does Mizutsune hold? The new monster is not only particularly stylish and extremely popular with fans (via Capcom), but it also had a special variant in Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate (MHGU): the Soulseer Mizutsune. Observant players have also discovered it in Monster Hunter Wilds.
If you break Mizutsune’s head during the fight, its eyes begin to glow blue, and it changes its behavior, which strongly reminds fans of the Soulseer Mizutsune. This one was blind in MHGU and perceived its surroundings through its bubbles – and becomes furious as soon as hunters come into contact with them. It then releases larger blue bubbles that deal explosive damage instead of the previous variously colored bubbles and attacks faster and more aggressively.
This behavior is also displayed by the seemingly normal Mizutsune in Wilds as soon as you break its head and it becomes blind. Such a transformation between different variants has not been seen in Monster Hunter before. Therefore, fans believe that this new feature could significantly influence their hunts in the future.

“I don’t think people know what this means”
What impact could this new feature have? In his thread on Reddit, user HappyFreak1 discusses Mizutsune’s transformation during the fight. He believes that such a change would also suit other monsters and hopes that Capcom will use this new feature more often in the future, as it adds a new twist to the combat.
He outlines the following ideas on how this could be further integrated in the future:
I don’t think people know what this means. Mizutsune seamlessly transforming into a variant form after going blind in one or both eyes opens up completely new possibilities in monster design.
If monsters could transform into variants simply by meeting certain conditions, multiple forms or stages could be combined into a single monster in the future. Just imagine:
A Brachydios whose slime turns into the more explosive Flashpoint variant during the fight due to enough damage taken – more aggressive, more dangerous, the slime deals more area damage and injures itself in the process. Or a Rajang whose tail is cut off and who then permanently enters a state of rage – with new, brutal attacks. Or a Tigrex whose roar becomes so loud after several rage phases that it suddenly deals damage.
These are just a few examples – but think further: What other monsters could transform? And what would that mean?
In the comments, there are more monsters mentioned, such as Deviljho or Diabolos, that would be suitable for such a transformation if they were to have a place in Monster Hunter Wilds in the future. End boss Zoh Shia also shows a similar transformation during the fight, transforming from the white guardian into a black, demonic being.
The new feature thus offers almost endless potential to refresh fights with new forms and transformations within the hunts. Fans, especially considering the upcoming second title update in the summer, wish for such a transformation for Lagiacrus.
Other fans point out that this could also lead to a loss of potential for different armors if the various variants were unified in a single monster. One possible solution would be to do it similarly to Arkveld, by having a normal and a guardian armor for the monster. Or addressing it with “mixed armors” like the armor design of Zoh Shia.
Do you think of any other monsters that would be suitable for such a new feature? Or would you perhaps wish for completely new forms? Feel free to let us know in the comments.
A new Pokémon is appearing in Pokémon GO. It has become a favorite in the main series.
What kind of Pokémon is it? It is Forgita, which first appeared in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. It combines the types Fairy and Steel and evolves from Tafforgita to Granforgita.
In particular, Granforgita has secured a spot on many players’ favorites lists of the ninth game generation. It is a small, pink fairy that is out to cause a ruckus with its huge hammer.
Its declared arch-enemy is Krarmor, which you could get in Pokémon GO earlier this year. According to the Pokédex, it lifts rocks into the air with its 100-kilo hammer to knock the Steel Bird out of the sky. That is also the reason why Krarmor is not used as a flying taxi in Paldea like in Galar – it would be too dangerous because of its natural enemies.
Granforgita is not to be trifled with. And it will be appearing in Pokémon GO soon.
Granforgita in the official event graphic
When is Forgita appearing? It will appear from April 16, 10:00 AM to April 22, 8:00 PM at the Horizon Event, which celebrates the start of the new season of the series.
You will obtain Forgita from 7 km eggs. You can evolve it to Tafforgita for 25 candies, and then another 100 for Granforgita.
After the event, Forgita will then hatch from 10 km eggs. That means: You need to walk a lot and also be lucky to get a Forgita.

On April 3rd, the long-awaited Minecraft movie hit theaters. The German YouTuber and Twitch streamer Erik “Gronkh” Range was supposed to voice a major role in the film, but after the release, the community is wondering if he can be heard at all.
What kind of role is that? When thinking of Minecraft in the German-speaking world, the YouTuber and Twitch streamer Gronkh quickly comes to mind. He was one of the first in the German-speaking area to play Minecraft, and so some fans of the video game hoped that he would have a dubbing role in the film.
Gronkh himself was also excited and said: “I really want to get ‘Hallöchen Popöchen’ in there” (via YouTube).
We introduce Gronkh in our video:

Gronkh, the man with the voice – Career and life of Germany’s most famous Let’s Player
“I thought he was voicing the narrator”
The community is puzzled: On reddit, a user posted his astonishment about Gronkh’s speaking role: “I just came out of the Minecraft movie and didn’t recognize Gronkh’s voice anywhere. I thought he was voicing the narrator. But somehow there was no narrator.”
In fact, it seems that not Gronkh is speaking as the narrator in the film, but the voice actor Tobias Meister, who is the German voice of actor Jack Black. Nothing is heard from Gronkh as the narrator.
Is Gronkh in the Minecraft movie? The YouTuber reportedly recorded all the lines for his narrator role, but then the role was cut from the film. That’s what Lenny from the YouTube channel Cinema Strikes Back says in his critique of the Minecraft movie (via YouTube).
So, anyone going to the Minecraft movie just for Gronkh will be bitterly disappointed. Instead, the Twitch streamer only voices the character of a radio voice, and his speaking role is limited to just a few lines.
For many fans, this is likely to be a disappointment, as many associate Minecraft closely with Gronkh’s Let’s Plays or perhaps first became aware of the game through him.
For this reason, a user on reddit rules out a trip to the cinema for the Minecraft movie if Gronkh is not voicing the narrator: “Then I’ll just stay at home with my ass and wait for the Blu-ray.”
